    Man i had this pretty bad witn the bacteria pseudomonas aeruginosa.. i broke my arm at work in dec 2021 abd had surgery on it, they put a plate with 10 screws in my left humerus bone. Fast forward 8 months later in august of 2022 and i had to get another surgery cause i got a infection from the 1st one. The top part of the incision was swollen and it hurt, plus the whole time after my 1st surgery i had pain but they thought it was irritation from the metal. My surgeon said he was amazed at how i never got sick (im 29 yrs old and healthy) anyways they removed the metal and i was on antibiotics (cefepime) the bacteria i had has a mortality rate of %18-%62 i thought i was going to die after finding that out but i felt fine. I was sent home with a PICC line to do my own antibiotics. The infection took a small part of skin and muscle tissue from my arm so the scar looks kinda messed up from the top part of the incision but my strength is back and i have zero pain now. The scary part is that this infection can come back, it can be dormant. But it's been basically a year since my 2nd surgery and i am fine. Be careful getting surgerys although it is rare what i got it is mostly found in hospitals

      @heatherkay1610 I'm fine now, it's been over a year since my 2nd surgery where they took out the metal implants.. haven't been on the antibiotics since last year and I have my strength back. But it left a pretty gnarly scar.

    Hi I’ve got a question my girlfriend has chronic osteomyelitis in the bones and her bones have been damaged and then they died due to the infection, can new bone regrow again if she can get rid of the infection and if the answer is yes what are the important steps she needs to take for new bone to regrow

    Has anyone any idea if a person has chronic osteomyelitis in the bones and clear the infection can new bone regrow and regenerate the way it was before the infection as the person I know has lost bone because it has became dead and damaged thanks for any advice!

    • @MedicalCentric
      @MedicalCentric  Před 3 měsíci +2

      Yes, with proper treatment and management, it's possible for new bone to regenerate and restore function in areas affected by chronic osteomyelitis.

    In NZ they just want to anputate as 1st option. It is cheapest

    • @MedicalCentric

      In New Zealand, it's concerning that amputation is often considered the first option for osteomyelitis. There are many alternative treatments available that can be effective and less invasive. ❤️

      @@rashondaharris2586 antibiotics can work. In my case it was advanced. They wanted to chop my foot but I refused. The MRSA infection was in the joint of big toe. They cut out the bone joint amd inserted a wire to connect the 2 bones while new bone or scar tissue reconnects bones. Wire removed, no infection returned and healed up. Been 3 months since surgery and doing well. Kept foot and all my toes. Question your doctors. All the best mate
